Hello Alan,
Well I thinking my be your goofball is the sameone bought a Ge M-50 from on ebay .Well he did what your goofball did stapled the grille cloth carrier to the cabinet, but used staples that were too long. Yup, right out through the face veneer. but it just cracked the veener on mine . figured it may lay flat once those staples are gone I took the chassis out and wow the guy recycled used caps he tacked with very little solder and used electrical tape in place . Glad I never pluged the set in.
